Id like to see a fluffy article on possible new races for stunty.
"Stunty Blood Bowl is once again on the rise, and the commissioners of the big leagues have been looking to recruiting some new races to add to the mayhem...."
the article could look at good and less good possibilities for new rosters strictly on a fluff level (not playability and game dynamics) |

For the record, since I had only mentioned it in chat...
A round table discussion with some of the larger league managers about how to run a successful and long standing league. There's more and more little leagues popping up with folks that want to play amongst friends and some of those could develop into larger and mo'better leagues with the right management.
Management style, custom rule-sets, length of tourneys, coach turnover, drama, etc... all could be talking points. I'd volunteer to be in the discussion as part of the NBFL. I'd also sit back and listen if it were folks in charge of WIL, OBBA, and 145 Club (and others if I am missing any big league head honcho). |

You are missing the biggest of them all - SWL's danielcollins.
I like the idea - large, multi-level leagues is the core of my (and hopefully many other's) Fumbbl experience. |

Meet the Newbies
In which you ask a few questions (not a full interview) to a coach who joined Fumbble recently (relatively recent). When did he join, why, blood bowl past, expectations, tips for other newbies. |

Sure.... you offering? |
Sadly not I don't have time for something quite so demanding atm, just throwing an idea out there. |
I might just take that one myself, if I can get out of my lazy chair. |

Well I am at work and bored again. So started thinking about all the different versions of bloodbowl (icehockey, basketball, football all have versions and more) and I though there is space the for a new varient.... Polo
So it would be 4 aside. Each team would have 4 players and the animals they are riding on. Plus a bench of however many. Probably 4.
Teams -
Araby - ride on Camels or elephants.
Chaos - Horse or Juggernauts
Humans - Horse or steam tank type thing
Elf - Horse or Deer
Goblins - Pogo, squig, spider or Wolves
Orcs - Wolves or Boar
Skaven - Doomflayer or Doomwheel
Amazons - Horse or Unicorn
Dwarf - Deathroller or Killdozer
Skinks - Terradon or Steggadon
Snotlings - Trolls,Ogres or Pump Wagon
Dark Elves - Horse or Cold One
Now we have our teams and mounts, who wants to write some rules for this awesome idea for a feature in GLN

I've thought of a few of these as well.
Team pursuit (cycling). 9 members per team. The other 2 are each corner of the track. 1st 5th man across the line (starting at opposite sides) is the winner, each team member has to swing off the front of the team at the end of each turn.
Basketball. No blocking/no running more than 3 squares/one team member is the hoop that you have to pass or hand off to score.
and
Rugby. Every player has hand off, can only block/blitz the ball carrier. No forward passing (unless kicking). No passing further than a short pass. |

SWL definitely.
BB7's, though (while I won't argue against their inclusion) is only as large because coaches may have unlimited teams. That league also hasn't had a tourney since March. And hasn't had one with more than 4 teams since January of 2010. I'd love them to be a part of the round table to let us know what has stalled them out. A good number of leagues with HUGE numbers of teams aren't exactly "active".
Zlurp Nation BBL is another, though, that HAS been on the rise from what I've seen... and they have another online presence outside of FUMBBL. They should be included too. |

BB7's has been through several rules discussions and are waiting for some L client features to be available before they come back with a vengeance, I believe. (not speaking in an official capacity here)
Zlurp has had a slight hiccup recently due to some RL things taking up time, but seems to back to getting things tidied up. (again only a member not Staff :p) |
